I recently had a somewhat high risk encounter with a woman of unkwon status.The day after when I woke up i imeddiatly begin to panic about hiv.It seemed like a few hours later my testosterone level had dropped and has stayed that way since.Could this be due to guilt/sterss/anxiety?or could it be due to hiv infection.I have heard that it is common for hiv+ males to have lower testosterone levels.thanks in advance.

Hi,
How do you know your testosterone levels dropped--did you have a hormone level test done? Or do you just mean you have lost your libido?
In any case, when people are stressed, the sex drive is usually the first thing affected, because your body stops releasing sex hormones. So, you lose your sex drive as a consequence. Sounds to me like this is what's going on. And if you're concerned about having been exposed to HIV, get tested in three months. Remember, the odds are in your favor that you are negative!
